menu-bar-height

Arguments:

Returns the standard height for any menu-bar on a window.

You likely will need to know this value if you create menu-bars on
child windows. In the Windows operating system, child windows are not
allowed to have menu-bars. Common Graphics now allows it anyway by
implementing a menu-bar pane that emulates the one in the underlying
window system. This menu bar (on a child window) is not part of the
window's frame, though, and so it takes up space in the user
coordinate system of the window. You will therefore need to position
any widgets or windows that are in the child window that has a
menu-bar so that they are below the menu-bar. See menu.
